Chris Sale

On Monday, August 8, Boston Red Sox left-handed pitcher Chris Sale underwent an open reduction and internal fixation of a right distal radius (wrist) fracture.

Sale, 33, had already been on the injured list with a fractured finger that he suffered in July during just his second start of the season. The Red Sox at this writing qualify as playoff longshots. Sale still seems capable of pitching at ace-ish level when healthy, but health has obviously been quite elusive in recent years.

Red Sox pitcher Chris Sale will miss the remainder of the 2022 season after he underwent surgery on a fractured wrist suffered in a recent bicycle accident.

He had surgery on his left pinky the next day to repair a fracture, and was progressing towards a potential comeback before the season’s end. According to the Red Sox, Sale is “expected to be ready for the start of Spring Training in 2023.” Red Sox pitcher Chris Sale will miss the remainder of the 2022 season after he underwent surgery on a fractured wrist suffered in a recent bicycle accident.

Sox chief baseball officer Chaim Bloom said Sale did not suffer any other serious injuries in the accident. “Fortunately, that was the only thing really ...

Sale’s wrist surgery marks the second time he has gone under the knife in three weeks. He is under contract for each of the next two seasons and is due to make $27.5 million in 2024 and 2025, respectively. After missing the first 3-½ months of the season due to a stress fracture in his right rib cage, he returned in mid-July, only to leave his second start after a line drive broke the pinky finger on his throwing hand. He had recently resumed playing catch and was expected to return at some point in September before suffering the accident Saturday. Sale, who missed all of 2020 and most of 2021 after undergoing Tommy John surgery, will end the year having logged 48 ⅔ regular season innings over a three-season period from 2020-22. Red Sox starter Chris Sale broke his right wrist in a biking accident Saturday and underwent surgery Monday, the team announced. I know he was going down a hill.

Chris Sale's season is over. The Boston Red Sox announced Tuesday that the perennially-injured pitcher suffered a broken wrist in a bike accident.

In the hazy afterglow of the 2018 World Series, with confetti still littering the streets of Boston and the image of Sale bringing Machado to his knee, it seemed like the first step in continuing the greatness of the most winning season in franchise history. He had surgery on July 18, but the team was hopeful he’d return in September. Bloom confirmed that he was on track to return before this new injury. On Tuesday, the Sox announced that Sale had undergone surgery after breaking his wrist in a bike accident.

The Boston Red Sox announced this morning that Chris Sale will miss the remainder of the season after undergoing surgery to repair a broken wrist this ...

Prior to the past three years, Sale was a dependable option on the mound throughout his career. According to the team’s press release, Sale suffered the injury during a bicycle accident on Saturday. The Red Sox believe that Sale will be ready for Spring Training 2023 after a successful procedure on his broken wrist was performed on Sunday. Here’s to hoping that Sale can get past these injuries and have a healthy 2023 season.

Boston LHP Chris Sale, already on the injured list with a broken finger, will not return this season after having surgery to repair broken wrist.

Following surgery, he was expected to return in September. However, the broken wrist over the weekend ended any possibility of Sale returning to the mound this season. He missed the entire 2020 season recovering from Tommy John surgery on his left elbow. Very glad this wasn’t worse.

"On Monday, Boston Red Sox left-handed pitcher Chris Sale underwent an open reduction and internal fixation of a right distal radius (wrist) fracture," MLB.com wrote. Boston Red Sox ace Chris Sale underwent season-ending surgery on Monday (August 8) after breaking his right wrist during a bike accident, the team announced via MLB.com. Sale had returned to the Red Sox last month after experiencing a stress fracture in his right rib cage, which occurred during a private workout in February while recovering from Tommy John surgery from the previous year.

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale fell off his bike on Saturday, suffering a fractured wrist wrist that required season-ending surgery.

The Red Sox have paid Sale $60 million over the past two seasons, all coming after he missed 2020 due to Tommy John surgery. It’s been a disastrous season for the 33-year-old southpaw. Diagnosed as a right distal radius fracture, Boston’s ace underwent immediate surgery and will miss the remainder of the season.

Chris Sale's injury-plagued Red Sox tenure has taken yet another surreal turn. He's out for the season after getting hurt in a bike accident on Saturday.

The 33-year-old did not make his season debut until July 12 after he was diagnosed with a fractured rib cage during spring training. Sale was already sidelined after he fractured his left pinky during a start against the Yankees on July 17, when a line drive by Aaron Hicks hit his pitching hand. Sale underwent surgery on Monday and the Red Sox expect the seven-time All-Star to be ready for spring training.

You couldn't make this up, right?” said chief baseball officer Chaim Bloom. The fractured wrist is the latest setback for Sale, who has made only 14 starts ...

And given that he’s barely pitched over the last three years and that he’ll be 34 next year, it’s fair to wonder whether Sale will ever be the pitcher the Sox hoped they’d get when they signed him. Though Eovaldi excelled in 2020-21, the Sox have been spending roughly $41.6 million per year (as calculated for luxury tax purposes) on Sale and Price since 2020. In spring training, the Red Sox determined that the gap in negotiations with Betts would be too great to bridge and that he’d almost certainly depart in free agency. He missed all of 2020 and the first four months of 2021 after undergoing Tommy John surgery. In his next outing, July 17 against the Yankees, a first-inning liner fractured his left pinkie and required surgery. It was a pretty rough spill and very glad this wasn’t worse.

BOSTON -- Chris Sale's unfortunate 2022 season -- marred by a series of freak injuries that limited him to just two starts -- was dealt one last blow when ...

In that outing, he looked better than he had at any point last year, maybe except for Game 5 of the ALCS. So we're really encouraged in that regard. “Chris had actually just finished up his throwing at [Boston College],” said Bloom. “He took his bike out to go grab some lunch near his house and hit something going down a hill, flew off the bike and I learned about it later that afternoon. The season started ominously for Sale before Spring Training had even started. “As with everything that's happened, you look forward, and he should be fine,” said Bloom. “I know we keep saying that and things keep happening. "We need to dispatch some people to go find whoever has the Chris Sale voodoo doll and recover it.” But that’s out the window now.

In the wake of Chris Sale's latest unfortunate injury, we break down what the Red Sox ace has contributed since his five-year contract extension kicked in.

The problem, of course, is that Sale has struggled mightily to stay on the field. Sale will have made $90 million by the end of this season. Sale also missed the entire 2020 campaign and much of the 2021 season while recovering from Tommy John surgery.

Another day, another injury for Chris Sale. And this one will cause him to miss the rest of the 2022 season for the Boston Red Sox.

Sale is signed through the 2024 season on a five-year, $145 million deal. The 33-year-old Sale has an extensive injury history with the Boston Red Sox, and the season-ending surgery on his right wrist following an accident on his bike just adds to that. According to a statement, the Red Sox expect Sale to be ready for the start of 2023 spring training.

Red Sox pitcher Chris Sale, who was recovering from a broken left pinkie finger, broke his right wrist Saturday.

“This is just an incredibly bizarre run of events,” Bloom said Tuesday. “He should be full go next spring. Sale’s run of bad luck continued this year, when he suffered a stress fracture in his rib cage while training during MLB’s lockout. It’s definitely different this year.” Boston Red Sox left-handed pitcher Chris Sale’s injury-plagued season came to an end Monday after he underwent surgery to repair the broken right wrist he suffered in a bike accident over the weekend. “It’s different this year. He underwent Tommy John surgery in March 2020 and was sidelined for the coronavirus pandemic-shortened season.

El lunes estaba a 4,5 juegos de una plaza para los playoffs como comodín, con marca 54-56. El 17 de julio se rompió el dedo meñique de la mano izquierda al ser golpeado por una línea en un encuentro con los Yanquis y se hizo operar al día siguiente. La lesión más reciente de Sale genera dudas sobre su futuro con el equipo una vez que esté saludable.

La temporada 2022 de los Medias de Rojas de Boston va de mal en peor debido a que se encuentran en el sótano de la División Este de la Liga Americana.

Por último, con su ausencia por el resto de la temporada, Sale cumplió el tercer año de un pacto de cinco campañas por $145 millones de dólares, un negocio que no ha sido rentable en Boston, debido a que durante este tramo se ha subido al montículo en 36 ocasiones con récord de (11-13). La temporada 2022 de los Medias de Rojas de Boston va de mal en peor debido a que se encuentran en el sótano de la División Este de la Liga Americana. La segunda mitad de campaña sigue sin darle a los “Patirrojos” noticias positivas, sino que negativas; todo esto después de que el lanzador zurdo Chris Sale se despidiera de la actual zafra producto de una fractura en su muña, después de sufrir un accidente montando su bicicleta. Pero esta no ha sido la única ocasión en que el siniestro de 33 años pasó por el quirófano, debido a que el pasado 17 de julio se rompió el dedo meñique de la mano izquierda al ser golpeado por una línea en un encuentro ante los Yankees de Nueva York.

We should be officially past the point where the Red Sox depend on Chris Sale going forward.

That could leave the Red Sox needing multiple moves from outside the organization to contend for their next postseason berth. Nathan Eovaldi, Michael Wacha, Rich Hill and James Paxton — who has yet to appear in a game with the Red Sox — are all potential free agents. Brayan Bello shows significant promise but has made a total of 15 career appearances above the Double-A level. Current circumstances would suggest Sale will be short of the American League elite at that point in his career. Sale has two years remaining on the contract extension he signed prior to the 2019 season — in hindsight, a woefully misguided offering by former Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski. That five-year, $145-million deal likely helped contribute to his firing later that year. Sale was shut down during the following spring training and had surgery at the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic. “We’re obviously going to have to do that and be smart with it. Josh Winckowski has been less encouraging considering the same baseline for success. “One way or another, we’ve seen the need for it over this past month. Tuesday’s developments were just the latest in a string of bizarre setbacks that have derailed the left-hander. Sale has made a total of 11 appearances and completed 48⅓ innings over the course of his extension. That came on a wicked line drive back through the middle in a July start at Yankee Stadium. It was just his second outing of the season, a delay to midsummer caused by a stress fracture in his rib cage during spring training.

Red Sox starter Chris Sale, already injured, will miss the rest of the 2022 season after breaking his wrist in a bicycle accident.

While this year has been difficult for Familia, he began the season with a 3.28 ERA for his career. Sale has only made 11 starts since missing the entire 2020 season. Sale underwent surgery on Monday and is expected to be ready for the start of spring training in 2023.

The start against New York was just his second of the season after a stress fracture in his right rib cage kept him out for the first three months of the campaign.

Chris Sale laments not earning his money since signing a five-year, $145 million extension before the 2019 season. If the Red Sox left-hander really feels ...

I'd put the odds at non-zero, because I believe him when he says it eats him up not to earn his money. The $145 million he's making now just balances the scales against the five-year, $32.5 million extension he signed at the start of his career with the White Sox in 2013. I wouldn't even consider floating the possibility for any other player in baseball, and I wouldn't actually expect Sale to follow through, either. And he's right that the Red Sox have paid him to do nothing not just this year, but really the last three years. Sale has made no secret of his frustration, especially since the Red Sox guaranteed him an average of $29 million a year in 2019. I certainly wouldn't if I were in Sale's shoes, especially since he was so underpaid for the first half of his career when he routinely started All-Star Games and once even struck out 300 batters.

Sale has had a streak of bad luck in regard to injuries. The accident that caused his broken wrist is no different.

"You couldn't make this up," Bloom said. He was on his way to get lunch when the injury occurred: Red Sox fans' misery will only be compounded when they figure out how the latest accident happened.
